Maybe This Isn't A Fool's Errand

Here is a link to The Guardian newspaper and an article that discusses that sometimes facts do convince the skeptics of climate change/global warming. That is good to know, but the real conundrum is how to convince those who seemingly refuse to be convinced. Is it possible? I don't know what the answer is, but I know I will still try and provide some insight into our environmental challenges and triumphs. Even if we can't get others to accept the evidence, we can learn more about our world and the global environment in which we live.

Sometimes Pictures Really Are Better Than Words

I read an article on the online version of The New York Times this morning about increased melt from glaciers and the Antarctic ice sheets. The first image they had reminded me of all the other pictures I have seen of glaciers retreating. For me, these pictures give powerful voice to the evidence that scientists have acquired that the world is warming. It's not just one glacier, it is all of them. Here are some pictures that really do speak louder than words that global warming/climate change is real.
